weaving in Biblical Times.

There were not many regular manu-
facturers among the ancient Jews. There
are, however, several beautiful illusions
| to weaving by Job, but this, like spinning
the thread, was carried ON as a family
employment rather than as a regular
trade. 1t is SO now among eastern ma
tons. The loom and the instruments
for spinning are Of the plainest and
simplest kind In the description of the
virtuous woman, Proverbs XXI, 10, tc
the end we have a full and minute ac-
count of the manner in which these fam
lily employments were directed by the
| mistress. Nor was this only in the fam
lies of the lower and middle ranks. In
| the Greek and Roman histories we read
| Of the wives of kings and generals being
| thus engaged. Homer, who lived soon
after the time of Solomon, describes two
queens-Penelope and Helen-employed
at their looms. DR.. Shaw found that the
women in Barbary at the present day
were the only persons who wove the
hykes or upper garments. These were
coarse articles and they did not use shut
| ties, but passed the threads of the wool
| with their fingers. Solomon's virtuous
woman is represented by our translators
of the Bible as having clothing of silk
| the word rendered silk, according t
some authorities, should be fine cotton
cloth or muslin, as they state silk was
| then scarcely, if at all, known. Aurelian
| the Roman emperor, ], 300 years after
| the time of Solomon, refused his wife {
| silk gown because it was too expensive
We can, therefore, hardly suppose that {
Jewish woman of the middle class coul(
| have such clothing. PHILADELPHIA Call.

Mastodons I'm Alaska.

In conversation with d. H. Summers,
formerly of Denver, Col, who came out
this fall with party of miners from
Forty Mile Creek, we learned that the
existence of living mastodons was not the
mere fabrication of northern furriers, but
that the Stick Indians had positively told
him that such animals had been seen by
them One of the Indians said that
while hunting one day in an unknown
section he came across an immense track
sunk to a depth of several inches in moss.
1t much resembled an elephants track,
but was larger round than a barrel. The In
dian followed up this curious track, which
to all appearances was very fresh, track
ing from one immense stride to another,
a distance of some miles, when he came
in full view of his game. The hunter
gave one look, then turned and fled.
These Indians as rule are the bravest
hunters. With no other weapon than
their spear they will attack and kill a
grizzly, but the immense proportions of
this new style of game filled the hunter,
brave as he was, with great fear.
He described it as being larger than
Port Trader Harper'S store, with great
shining yellow tusks and a mouth large
enough to swallow him at a single gulph.
He said the animal was doubtless similar
to those who furnished the immense
bones scattered over that section. If
such animals are now in existence, and
Mr.. Summers has no reason to doubt the
veracity of the Indian, as other Indians
and also Mr.. Harper confirmed 1t, they
! inhabit section very high in altitude,
but rarely visited by human beings. We
also have no reason to doubt the Indian
tale, for at no very distant period Yukon
country was inhabited by these animals,
as hundreds of their massive skeletons
strewn along the creeks are silent but
truthful witnesses. On Forty Mile Greek
bones can be found projecting partly
from the sand, and among the driftwood
of the stream on the creek below this
| these skeletons are also quite numerous.

Christine Nilsson at Home.

Nilsson, since her marriage to the Count
Casa Miranda, has set up an establish
ment in London and entertains a great
deal. Her husband was said to be the
handsomest man in Spain when he mar
ried the first time, but at present he looks
more ike a German of the brunette type.
The Swedish songstress does not dress
well; and she has grown quite stout, and
all the mysterious sadness of her shadowy
eyes has given place TO commonplace
good nature and placidity. Her step
daughter, for whom she has had an al
most romantic affection, and who was
largely instrumental in making the mar
riage with her father, is pretty Spanish
girl who is dressed charmingly by French
modistes. Their drawing room is always
crowded with the very best company in
London, including not only titles, but
men and women who bear the proudest
titles in the aristocracy of art, letters, and
music. Nilsson sings very frequently at
her musicales and receptions, and her
voice is as delicate as it ever was She
collects about her such women as Flor
ence Rice Knox, Mile. Decca and Hope
Glenn. In spite of the large sums of
money Nelson's first husband lost, and
| his people cheated her out of, she still has
large fortune and lives in beautiful
style. OF course she ''collects' every
one collects something and her two pas
sions are tapestry and fans. Most of the
former she has picked up for herself, and
she has some rare and beautiful bits, but
the fans are mostly gifts. Wherever she
went, people who We're moved to enthu-
siasm by her marvellous silvery notes gave
her fan. She has them from every
country in which she has ever sung. One
| of them was given to her in st. Peters
| burg by a Russian prince and is a copy
| of the famous fan of the Queen of Dude.
| 1t is white silk embroidered with pearls
| and emeralds, the sticks of gold and ivory
| set with small rubies, and the monograms
| in diamonds. The Empress Eugene gave
| her a fan that once belonged to Nine
| Dubarry and was painted by Baucher,
| the wrought pearl sticks of which are
studded with sky blue turquoise. The
Venetians gave her a fan of silver filagree
and the most exquisite of old Venetian
| point lace. One of the Indian princes
| who attended the jubilee, Thakori of
| Morvi, it is said, heard her sing and saw
her fans, adding subsequently the most
| splendid and costly one in the whole col
! lection in the shape of a gold headed fan
| crusted with gems, and made of the
| feathers of gorgeous East Indian birds. =

Let the Children Play.

Children with active minds should
not be sent to school as early as those
of slower mental growth Let them
romp and play until they have attained
the age of eight or ten years, without
learning a letter, if need be. They
will be none the worse for 1t and. when
they do begin, viii progress more rap
idly than those who began three or four
years before. There are those who
will, perhaps, take exceptions to this,
but TO the fact of early-begun and long
continued school life, the broken down
nervous system of the average Amer
lean can justly be attributed Health
first; let mental attachments follow as
they naturally will. 1t Is not to be
supposed that during this period the
child is to be altogether free of train
ing of some kind. A system of home
discipline should go on during this
time that will prove invaluable to the
child in after life When tired Of play,
devote a portion of each day TO read
ing, always selecting something that
will not only interest, but instruct at
the same time. Teach them to be
truthful, to respect their elders, to be
manly, womanly, and self-reliant, and
you are paving their way for sue
cessful, happy future. knowledge of
this sort gained viii more than eoun-
terbalance that which they would have
attained at school; and good health,
that which is of paramount Importance,

ment in close school rooms. Let chill

This truth, that human nature is a
kaleidoscope of good and bad rather than
one stripe of plain color, receives a strik-
ing illustration in the case of one Vinzenzo
Juliano, who is confined in the Newark
Jail on a charge of murder. According
to report, it was noticed that the priso-
ner grew weaker and more meager day
by day. His wife visited him regularly,
and she invariably carried away with
her on her departure from the jail a
small parcel. The suspicious of the war
den We're aroused, and he made an in
spection of the bundle, to find it contain
ing the ration of food with which the
prisoner was supplied. Inquiries fol-
lowed, and it appeared the prisoner was
starving himself to provide food for his
wife and children, who had no other
means of support. On learning the fact
the warden doubled the ration, and took
further steps to keep the family of the
prisoner from utter destitution. New

Mormonism in switzerland.

The report of the government of the
canton of Berne, Switzerland, to the
department of justice and police of the
Swiss central government regarding Nor
monism maintains that it would be use
less to take hall measures, the expulsion
of all the Mormons from Switzerland
being the only means that could possibly
prove effective. The bundesrath fed
eral counciD adopted that view and APP
pointed a commission to inquire into the
proceedings of the Mormons In all the

Several Bodies Found After Centuries
Perfectly Preserved.
Signor S. Marghieri arrived in this city
a few DAYS ago from Mexico. where he
was engaged by the government In max
ing extensive archaeological and min
eraIogical researches He brought with
him some splendid specimens of natural
mummies. The group is composed OF
four persons, two small children and two
adults, a man and woman. a rat was
also found.
The man Is notable for his perfect
physical proportions and the robustness
of his limbs The woman is over feet
inches in height and has finely
nodded body and limbs. To what race
they belong is not known, but it is sur
missed that they must be of the famous
warrior Aztec race or of the agricultural
and primitive Voltecas. To decide Is
difficult; but one thing is certain, says La
Voce del Popolo, and it Is that they be-
long to a race entirely different from the
Indians who now inhabit the region
where the mummies Were discovered.
This is proven by their color, which is
almost white: the fineness of the hair,
which is marvelously well preserved in
the woman: the texture of certain cloth,
now unknown; the bent positions of the
bodies, peculiar to those found in all the
tombs of the ancient AZtecs, and strange
ornaments upon their persons
The woman has her delicate ears
pierced with piece of polished precious
wood, and in the ears of one of the chill
dren are little pearls worked in bone,
with serpentine pieces of rare stone as
marvelously cut as if it came from the
hand of the most skilled lapidary. The
cords about the body are of fine ma
terial and twisted with the greatest skill
and seem to have been made of the fiber
of different trees and the hair of various
fur animals.
With the bodies Signor Marghieri
found rat. mummifed to perfection,
and it is surmised that it may have been
a pet in the family, like the little white
rat of our DAYS. The specimens men
toned are of the rarest kind. the mum

American dentistry is generally held in
good repute in Germany, and American
dentists We're used to call themselves sap
proved in America. A good deal of
quackery having taken refuge under that
questionable approval, the Prussian
authorities now require every dentist not
in possession of German diploma to use
the real title obtained at foreign schools
of dentistry, such as doctor of dental
surgery, after having proved the actual
possession of the diploma to the satisfac-
ton of the authorities. Without such
proof not one will III future be allowed
